Bethenny Frankel railed against a \u201cf\u2013ked up\u201d scene of the \u201cReal Housewives of Beverly Hills\u201d that included Rachel Zoe speaking to her children about divorcing their father<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is a scene from the \u2018Real Housewives of Beverly Hills\u2019 with Rachel Zoe and her children that I just saw on this app,\u201d the former \u201cReal Housewives of New York City\u201d alum said on TikTok<\/a> Tuesday.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt so crystallizes the potential damage that reality television can do and the price that you pay and the selling of your soul to the devil that it was so jarring,\u201d she explained.<\/p>\n

Bethenny Frankel said she was \u201cdeeply uncomfortable\u201d watching Rachel Zoe talk to her kids about divorcing their father on \u201cRHOBH.\u201d bethennyfrankel\/tiktok<\/p>\n

\u201cIt so crystallizes the potential damage that reality television can do and the price that you pay and the selling of your soul to the devil,\u201d she said in a TikTok video Tuesday. bethennyfrankel\/tiktok<\/p>\n

Frankel claimed producers probably \u201cprovoked\u201d Zoe into speaking to her kids about the divorce on camera. bethennyfrankel\/tiktok<\/p>\n

Frankel \u2014 who shares daughter Bryn, 15, with ex-husband Jason Hoppy \u2014 said she went through a \u201cvery public divorce\u201d and \u201cwas sort of Easter egging, breadcumbing on the show\u201d to prove that she was living \u201cin misery.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cMy daughter was not on the show and watching Rachel and her kids with a scene that was certainly provoked by producers like, \u2018Talk to your kids about what it feels like to be going through this divorce,’\u201d she said, referring to the fashion designer\u2019s candid scene with Skyler Morrison, 14, and Kaius Jagger, 12, about her estranged husband, Rodger Berman.<\/p>\n

The former \u201cApprentice: Martha Stewart\u201d star, 55, claimed producers would make her bring up topics with her exes on the show to create content for the show.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat was the price and the cost of being on the show \u2026 it wasn\u2019t great,\u201d she shared. bethennyfrankel\/tiktok<\/p>\n

\u201cThat was the price and the cost of being on the show \u2026 it wasn\u2019t great. [These are] children that are not fully formed human beings, adolescents, teens, that a parent is saying, \u2018How does it feel?’\u201d Frankel added.<\/p>\n

\u201cHaving that discussion which is \u2014 why at an age and a stage? Unless you must do this for the paycheck or the fame or the promotion to some business, the price is great,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe price of having to put your children on television and ask them about a divorce is so gargantuan and made me actually uncomfortable.\u201d<\/p>\n

Frankel clarified that her opinion about the scene was \u201cnot a slight or a dig at anyone,\u201d but since she knows how reality TV works, she said it is \u201cf\u2013ked up.\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cIt made me deeply uncomfortable,\u201d she concluded.<\/p>\n
